BIKING IN THE FALL

          Here in La Jolla our weather doesn't shift drastically in the fall or any other season for that matter.  I still manage to wear boots from my NYC days but instead of tights I pair them with shorts and a light sweater.  For the rest of the world that has to worry about sudden downpours and windy mornings try The Rain Cape from Iva Jean in Seattle, Washington.  Curved reflective piping give elongate your frame and make sure cars and other cyclists see you.  It slides easily over your head and/or backpack filled with the daily essentials.  The color is a light and simple gray which can go with ANYTHING in your closet.  Last but not least, it's designed and MADE in Washington.  And if you ever find yourself in Seattle and looking for a bike route check out the few they recommend.
